By my father and my mother, oh Husayn, you deserve to be cried for, by every eye Oh Husayn of patience, the mountain of consolation, you made all the prophets cry And the earth and the heavens cried with grief and sorrow; and sadness had flown and prevailed the east and the west By Mustafa Al-Naeb ۰ ۱۶ شهریور ۹۵ ، ۰۹:۲۸ طاووس Tatbir is forbidden in Islam Tatbir is forbidden (Haram) in Islam. Great Shia scholars such as grand Ayatullah Khamenei who is the leader of Islamic Republic of Iran and Ayatullah Sistani, the Shia Leader in Iraq, have prohibited any self-mutilation such as self-flagellation with knives or chains (Tatbir) and even walking on fire. You can see their Fatwas (religious opinions) on tatbir.org “Practicing Tatbir (i.e.self-flagellation) is one of the wrongdoings. I know that some people would say: “It was better for him not to mention Tatbir.” They would say: “Why do you bother with Tatbir?

Some people do it, let them do!”. No! it’s not right to remain silent toward such a wrong action… It is wrong that some people hold daggers and hit themselves on the head to bleed. What are they seeking?! How can this be an act of mourning?! Of course hitting on the head with one’s hands is a sign of mourning. You have seen it several times that when people face suffering, they hit on their chests and heads. This is a typical symbol of mourning. But where have you ever seen a person who is suffering from the loss of a dear one, hit on their head with a dagger and make it bleed?! How can this be an act of mourning? Tatbir is a fabricated tradition. It is among the issues that does not belong to the religion and undoubtedly God is not also pleased with such a practice. The more I thought about it, the more truly I realized I cannot overlook informing our dear people about Tatbir which is certainly an act of wrongdoing and a heresy. Do not practice it! I do not approve of it. If someone does something to pretend that they want to practice Tatbir, I will be truly dissatisfied with them.

I am declaring this solemnly.” -Imam Khamenei’s saying in 1994 The following questions are also replied by Grand Ayatullah Khamenei : Question 1449: In commemorating the martyrdom of Imam Husayn (PBUH) on the tenth of Muharram, some people hit themselves with a machete, or walk bare-footed on fire. Such actions defame Shi‘ism and put it in a bad light, if not undermine it. They cause bodily and spiritual harms on these doing it as well. What is your opinion in this matter? Answer: Any practice that causes bodily harm, or leads to defaming the faith, is haram(forbidden). Accordingly, the believers have to steer clear of it. There is no doubt that many of these practices besmirch the image of Ahlul Bayt’s (PBUH) School of Thought which is the worst damage and loss. Question 1450: Is hitting oneself with swords halal (allowed) if it is done in secret? Or is your fatwa in this regard universal?

Answer: “In addition to the fact that it is not held in the common view as manifestations of mourning and grief and it has no precedent at the lifetime of the Imams (a.s.) and even after that and we have not received any tradition quoted from the Infallibles (a.s.) about any support for this act, beit privately or publicly, this practice would, at the present time, give others a bad image of our school of thought. Therefore, there is no way that it can be considered permissible.” See more Fatwas at tatbir.org/ Click here tatbir.org/wp-conten to see an official religious opinion (fatwas) of Ayatullah sistani about self-flagellation with knives or chains. Who is Holy Ali Asghar? He was the infant of Imam Husayn(the third Shia Imam)and Holy Rubab. In the event of Karbala when Imam Husayn saw his companions and friends were martyred and nobody is ther. He decided to enter the battle and said: Is there anybody to defend the family of God`s prophet? Is there any worshiper of God to fear of the Lord? Is there anyone to help us for God?

Imam Husayn went next to the tent."please give me my infant. I want to tell him goodbye too" He said his sister;Zainab. Zainab s.a gave him the baby. Ali Asghar was thirsty and hungry. Imam Husayn was a man of great love and compassion. He wanted to kiss the baby that suddenly he was shot by an arrow. One of the enemies shot an arrow that pierced his throat. He took his hands under his throat. He filled his hands with his blood and threw it to the sky. No drops of his blood fell down on the ground. The first Friday of Muharram In more than 3500 places around the world and Iran, Mothers mourn for the martyr infant (Ali Asghar ) of Karbala , along with their infants. This ceremony is called the global day of Ali Asghar. Daesh militants who are the enemies of Imam Husayn have killed Muslims ,including women and children.

Arbaeen of Imam Hussain in Kolkata, India Arba'een (Arabic: الأربعین‎, "forty"), Chehelom (Persian: چهلم‎‎, the fortieth [day]") is a Shia Muslim religious observance that occurs forty days after the Day of Ashura. It commemorates the martyrdom of Hussain ibn Ali, the grandson of Prophet Muhammad (PBUT), which falls on the 20th day of the month of Safar. Imam Hussain ibn Ali and 72 companions were martyred by tyrant Yazid I's army in the Battle of Karbala in 61 AH (680 CE). Arbaeen is one of the largest pilgrimage gatherings on Earth, in which up to 30 million people go to the city of Karbala in Iraq. Arbaeen is the world's largest annual gathering, with the number of pilgrims far exceeding the two million visitors who descend on Mecca for the Hajj. The Kumbh Mela, a mass Hindu pilgrimage, attracts more pilgrims but is held only every three years.

Ruqia Hassan, 30, wrote about daily life in Raqqa, IS’s Syrian stronghold and the frequent target of coalition airstrikes against the group. Her frequent Facebook posts appeared under the pen name Nissan Ibrahim. The exact date of Hassan’s execution is unknown, but her presence on social media stopped abruptly in July 2015. News of her death was confirmed this week by Raqqa is Being Slaughtered Silently (RBSS), a group exposing human rights abuses from within Syria.

RBSS founder Abu Mohammed tweeted Hassan’s last known message: “I’m in Raqqa and I received death threats, and when #ISIS [arrests] me and kills me it’s ok because they will cut my head and I have dignity its better than I live in humiliation with #ISIS.” Hassan was an independent reporter who studied philosophy at Aleppo University and joined the opposition to Syrian President Bashar al-Assad’s government when the revolution began in Raqqa. After IS entered the city, she refused to leave and began reporting on the human rights abuses occurring there. ———————————————— isil , isis , Islamic Extremists , Islamic State Abu Rumaysah execution video , Abu Rumaysah, , ISIL , isis , Islamic extremist , Islamic State , Siddhartha Dhar , The Siddhartha Dhar Execution Video in full belfastchildis In a new video purportedly released by the Islamic State, a British executioner calls Prime Minister David Cameron an “imbecile” before executing five men accused of spying against the Islamic State for the United Kingdom. The video was allegedly filmed in Raqqa, the “capital” of the terrorist Islamic State.

In yet another heinous crime committed by the ISIS terror organization, the group has blown up a four-year-old child just one week after executing the child’s father.

Speaking to Alsumaria News , a senior official in the Iraqi national organization the Popular Mobilization Forces, Jabar el-Maamouri, said ISIS exploded “a bomb that was attached to a four-year-old child through a remote-controlled device so that his organs would be blown apart. ISIS executed the boy’s father a week ago who they accused of participating in an attack on one their outposts a month ago that killed two ISIS gunmen.” The killings took place in the Al-Shirqat district north of Salah ad Din province. El-Maamouri called human rights organizations to “document the crimes of ISIS and to publicize the incident to the international community to condemn its funders and supporters with money and words.” ISIS has controlled the Al-Shirqat district since June, 2014. The area is considered to be one of the organization’s strongholds. Elsewhere in Iraq, a local source in Nineveh province who asked to remain anonymous told Alsumaria News that the ISIS wiped out a village after its residents rebelled against the group. “ISIS executed dozens of civilians including old people, women and children in the village of Al-Choud in area of Al-Keraya (85 kilometers south of Nineveh),” he said.

Child in Isil video has now been identified as Isa Dare, the son of Grace Dare a Jihadi bride from Lewisham ———————————————– Unlike the man he appears to have replaced – Briton Mohammed Emwazi, dubbed “Jihadi John” – Mr Rumaysah was a well-known and prolific figure among radical Islamists in London. He disappeared in September 2014, shortly after being released on bail while under investigation for allegedly encouraging terrorism. Police banned him from travelling and ordered him to hand in his passport. However, he boarded a coach for Paris at London’s Victoria Station, along with his wife and children. Weeks later, he announced his arrival in Syria by posting an image online of himself holding a rifle, and his newborn and fourth child.

“What a shoddy security system Britain must have to allow me to breeze through Europe to [IS],” he tweeted. Mr Rumaysah, who is in his early 30s, was born and raised in the UK in a Hindu family – his original name is Siddhartha Dhar. Following his conversion, he became a leading member and speaker for the al-Muhajiroun network, a group banned under terrorism legislation. He would regularly attend demonstrations against the US, Israel, Arab regimes or any other cause the group believed to be un-Islamic. He would stand outside mosques on Friday afternoons, seeking to find new followers to the radical network’s way of thinking. He would post videos online and rarely turned down an opportunity to speak to the media. And when he spoke he barely hid his radical views. When so-called Islamic State claimed to have destroyed the border between Iraq and Syria in 2014, he believed it was the moment a new Islamic regime worthy of global support had been born. “The caliphate [a state governed in accordance with Islamic law, or Sharia] is a dream for all Muslims worldwide,” he said in one of his YouTube videos.

“We can finally have a sanctuary where we can practice our religion and live under the Sharia. It is a big, big thing.” In an appearance on the BBC’s Sunday Morning Live programme, he expanded on these views. “Now that we have this caliphate I think you’ll see many Muslims globally seeing it as an opportunity for the Koran to be realised,” he said. “As a Muslim I would like to see the UK governed by the Sharia. It is far superior to democracy. I don’t really identify myself with British values. I am Muslim first, second and last.” ‘Travel guide’ In 2014, Mr Rumaysah was asked by a TV journalist whether he would condemn the killing of US journalist James Foley by IS. ————————————— ‘Save Steven Sotloff’ by Abu Rumaysah on Channel 4 ————————————— He refused to answer the question – saying only that he condemned US airstrikes killing Muslims in the “caliphate”. In May 2015, he “published” a sort of travel guide for would-be fellow travellers.

The 40-page document, which opens with an image of a fictional battle on the edge of Jerusalem, is designed to encourage Muslims to stop procrastinating and join what Mr Rumaysah claims are the swelling ranks of Islamic State. Most of the rest of the booklet is devoted to the kind of information that features in a standard travel guide: food, weather and transport. “If you thought London or New York was cosmopolitan, then wait until you step foot in the Islamic State because it screams diversity,” he wrote. “In my short time here I have met people from absolutely every walk of life, proof that the caliphate’s pulling power is strong and tenacious.” He glossed over public executions, rape of women held as slaves and other punishments meted out to anyone who does not adhere to the fighting group’s ideology. This story originally appeared on BBC News Islamic Extremists , Islamic State daesh , isis , Islamic State belfastchildis The ISIS militants have reportedly abducted nearly 80 teachers in Iraq’s northern province of Nineveh after the instructors refused to promote the group’s heavily-distorted interpretations of religious principles in areas under their control.

A provincial source, speaking on condition of anonymity said on Sunday that Daesh extremists kidnapped 78 educators across the province after they rejected Daesh self-proclaimed education body and its radical curriculum. The source added that Daesh curriculum teaches children lessons on how to execute hostages, booby-trap buildings and carry out bomb attacks and other acts of terror. On April 12, 2015, Daesh extremists stormed a number of schools in al-Qayyarah, al-Shura, Badoush and al-Baaj neighborhoods of the troubled northern Iraqi city of Mosul, located some 400 kilometers (248 miles) north of the capital, Baghdad, and kidnapped nearly 120 schoolchildren. Sheikh Khalid Awad al-Shabani, a tribal leader in the western Iraqi province of Anbar, said last July that the Takfiri group is actively trying to lure local children into its ranks as would-be bombers. He added that the terrorist group had set up training camps for children in the Syrian province of Raqqah and the district of Heet in Iraq’s Anbar.

The tribal leader also said that the terrorist group brainwashes children in the camps and trains them how to conduct bomb attacks against military checkpoints and civilians. Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi said in June that the Takfiri group “conducts organized recruitment for children in 100 countries,” adding that the “exploitation of children for murder is a heinous crime.” Daesh launched an offensive in Iraq in June last year and took control of Mosul, the country’s second-largest city, before sweeping through parts of the country’s heartland. The terrorists have committed heinous crimes and threatened all communities, including Shias, Sunnis, Kurds and Christians, during their advances in Iraq. Iraqi soldiers, police units, Kurdish forces, fighters from Popular Mobilization Units and Sunni tribesmen have been engaged in joint operations to drive the terrorists out of the areas they have seized. Share this: Islamic State’s medieval Brutality in the 21st century It’s only right that the country should debate the consequences of the decision to step up our role in the mess that is Syria/Iraq and the insane actions of IS and other global Islamic extremists.

Regardless of where you stand on the issues in question ( and there are many , both political and ethical ) spare a thought for the UK pilots ( and all pilots & other personnel) whom are now pawns in this new kind of war and will be flying over enemy territory as they take the fight to IS and their deluded followers. How can anyone forget the brutal execution of Jordanian pilot Muath Al-Kasasbeh , burnt alive in a cage after a demonic stage show that saw him make his past masked IS fighters lining the route to the cage that would be his final destination and brutal execution. Anyone unfortunate enough to fall into the hands of IS should be in no doubt that they face a brutal and possible prolonged and excruciating death. For IS are an enemy that love to shock and terrorise and they have no boundaries or humanity when dealing with captured enemies or those unfortunate enough to live under their savage rule. For this is unlike any other war that has gone before and all normal rules of engagement are redundant against the mad men of IS and their twisted ideology. Unfortunately the mercy of a bullet as a form of execution is seldom available to those facing death at the hands of these Islamic demons.

———————————– Blog , Islamic Extremists anti - isisi , Arbaeen Procession , Husaini Islamic Trust UK , is islamic state , isis belfastchildis Shia, Sunni Muslims’ anti-Isis march in London not covered by mainstream media outlets Organisers of an anti-Isis march in London have spoken of their frustration after mainstream media outlets failed to cover the demonstration. Thousands of people took part in the annual UK Arbaeen Procession, coordinated by the Husaini Islamic Trust UK, on Sunday. Although Shia Muslims take part in the march each year to mark the Arbaeen, or mourning, anniversary of Imam Husain – a seventh-century leader who fought for social justice – this year organisers decided to use the event as a platform to denounce terrorism following the recent Isis attacks in Paris, Beirut and elsewhere. Organiser Waqar Haider said: “This year we had hundreds of placards which were basically saying ‘no’ to terrorism and ‘no’ to Isis. A very direct message. “For us it was a controversial move to go political. Normally we don’t mix politics with mourning.

However with what’s happened recently, we thought we had to make sure we as a community totally disassociate ourselves with what’s happening elsewhere in the world.” Despite this, Mr Haider said the demonstration still failed to garner attention in the mainstream media because of “stereotyping”. “It is the oldest annual Muslim event in London but unfortunately it is very difficult to get any media coverage,” he said. “I think it’s because of stereotyping. People see the entire Muslim community as one community. “[But] the Muslim community is a very diverse community, with the vast majority of us horrified by Isis. “With our event, we had so many people from different ethnic backgrounds. It’s more of a family event in terms of people it attracts.” Volunteer Mohammed Al-Sharifi also commented on the lack of media coverage for the event. In a tweet, he said: “Hundreds of Muslims flooded the streets of London yesterday to condemn terrorism. Media’s response: Silence.” His post has been re-tweeted more than 5,000 times. Other social media users also believed the demonstration should have been more widely covered.

Mr Al-Sharifi told The Independent: “I think the reason the mainstream media hasn’t covered the story is because I don’t think it’s juicy enough to sell papers. It’s simply not interesting enough.” “Unfortunately [some] media outlets have gone for stories that to some extent can be divisive. If a group of Muslims do something good, it’s not mentioned or the religion is not mentioned. But if someone does something [negative], it is on the front page and their religion is mentioned.” “It’s feeding this hatred and divisiveness and demonisation, I think, of Muslims.” He said the media had an increased level of responsibility to create a cohesive society. “The reason my tweet went viral… is because I think people realise there is a huge disparity between what they’re being fed in the media and the reality of the day-to-day interactions they have with Muslims at work, at school.” Mr Al-Sharifi called on the country’s leadership to counter Islamophobia. The Arbaeen processions take place in other locations around the world including Iraq, Nigeria and the US. During this year’s event in Kano, a Boko Haram suicide bomber killed at least 21 people.
